Ts-node version 6.0.4 is a minor release over its predecessor, 6.0.3, both serving as TypeScript execution environments and REPLs for Node.js. Examining the package metadata, the core dependencies remain consistent, indicating likely no significant API changes or breaking modifications in how ts-node interacts with essential libraries like yn, diff, chalk, arrify, mkdirp, minimist, make-error, and source-map-support. Developers can expect similar functionality for running TypeScript code directly without pre-compilation.
A key difference lies in the dist section, specifically the unpackedSize. Version 6.0.4 shows an unpacked size of 127533 bytes, slightly larger than 6.0.3's 127420 bytes. This suggests possible internal improvements, bug fixes, or small additions that don't directly affect the public API but contribute to a refined implementation.
The releaseDate also highlights the recency of 6.0.4, released on May 24, 2018, compared to 6.0.3's May 6, 2018, release. Thus, if developers value the latest adjustments or have encountered issues potentially addressed in subsequent releases, upgrading to 6.0.4 is recommended. Check release notes for detailed fix information. Overall, both versions provide a comparable TypeScript execution experience, with 6.0.4 presenting incremental enhancements.
